Unable to import HttpClient and HttpPost Libraries into ServletPostAsyncTask

[troy21688]

When I add the ServletPostAsyncTask class, I am unable to import the relevant libraries. I read in Stack Overflow that I could update my build.grade with the following:

useLibrary 'org.apache.http.legacy'

However, when doing so, it looks like the HttpClient and HttpPost libraries are deprecated.

Please let me know what I am doing wrong and how I should proceed.

Having the same problem after updating Android Studio.

This might have something to do with Android's dependency resolution, which seems to get messed up every now and then?

Your ServeltPostAsyncTask will have to be updated to use HttpUrlConnection instead of HttpClient/Post.

Is there an example of how to do this?

I followed the instructions on on the tutorial https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/java/endpoints/helloendpoints-android-studio

As I said, this worked until I updated android studio. I have since tried following the instructions on the link about migrating to 2.0 but so far only seemed to make things worse.

Okay, sorry I bit out of date on this guide. It looks like it's using HttpUrlConnection already since this change c4c0486

if that's not your issue, can you explain what it is?
